Florence + the Machine Will Replace Foo Fighters at Glastonbury

Following their show-stopping performance at Bonnaroo, Florence + the Machineare taking their talents to Glastonbury. The band has been named as the replacements for the Foo Fighters, who had to cancel their headlining gig at Glastonbury because of David Grohl’s leg injury. Grohl fractured his leg, after taking a fall onstage in Sweden. Ironically, Florence and the Machine had to cancel their gig at Coachella (weekend two), due to Florence’s foot injury. The singer broke her foot during weekend one of the Coachella festival. “Once we heard Foo Fighters had been forced to pull out, there was only one person we wanted to call and that was Florence,” Glastonbury organizer Emily Eavis stated. The sold-out festival will take place from June 24th through the 28th. Kanye West and The Who are the other headliners of the event, and some of the artists named to this year’s lineup include Mary J. Blige, Alabama Shakes, Pharrell Williams, Paloma Faith, Motörhead, Rudimental, and The Chemical Brothers.

FDRMX Eyes: This a fun video by indie pop group Kali Briis for the song “I Love Your Face”. It starts off with stylized birds that look similar to penguins, flipping switches on and off to the metronome-like beat, and then it gets interesting. Check out the video here.
